Alexis Sanchez netted twice in the final 20 minutes to help Arsenal to a 2-0 Premier League win over Sunderland and keep their top-four hopes alive.

Arsene Wenger’s men created numerous chances at Emirates Stadium, but initially struggled to find a way past the impressive Jordan Pickford.

The Sunderland goalkeeper was unable to prevent Sanchez from delivering Arsenal the win, though, as the Chilean was left with an easy finish by Mesut Ozil with 18 minutes left on the clock, before adding a second in the 81st minute.

Arsenal find themselves trailing fourth-placed Liverpool by one point heading into their final game of the league season following Tuesday’s win.
